Is it typical for Aspies to like the same foods over and over again with little variation? That is what I got from reading various sites, opinions?
I myself before I got in a relationship with an Aspie would try new foods and new combinations of foods at every oppurtunity. I cook with dozens upon dozens of different spices, sauces and condiments every time I make something for myself. I have come to appreciate the niceness it is that is sameness but still like to spice things up randomly.
I try to introduce new foods, spices and even brands gradually. What has worked for you all?
I like same foods over and over again but that is mainly because I don't seem to get organised enough to try too many different things. One possible way is to try one new thing every week.
I like to try many different foods.
Although when I do try new things I like to have a safe plan B just incase I don't like the new food.
My husband will eat the same thing everyday for months and then suddenly announce he never wants it again. I tend to cook dinners with a two dozen different recipes. I might try a new recipe every so often and if it meets approval it gets put on the list.
I would not eat the same thing everyday if I had a choice.
There are some things I would not mind eating every day eg. custard, toast and avocado or toast and dip or spaghetti bolognese with cheese.
M, I hope your husband doesn't tell you he doesn't want to eat something ever again after you've just put it on the table. If he does, he should do some cooking himself.
I eat the same kind of food most of the time, with some variation according to the seasons. I do know cooking and baking and I always try to prepare some special food (compared to the rest of the week) for the weekend or buy some extra fruit.
I have the same things in the same quantities for breakfast and (typically) lunch every day with, as for as breakfast is concerned at any rate, no exception. As I'm still a wee teenager living at home (not for much longer, though!), my mum makes dinner in the evenings and that is liable to change from one day to the next. Otherwise I'd probably have the same things for dins as well and die of malnutrition! Whatever the case, it still gets washed down with the same amount of biccies and tea each night so a spot of variety is really rather harmless.
I like to try new foods, and am generally not a picky eater. However, I do find cooking to be a pain as I get flustered with too many directions to follow.
I have a very narrow taste in food and am very picky. There are loads of common foods I don't like, including cheese and butter. When we're on holiday or in an unfamiliar town, it's not unknown for me to go to a restaurant with my family and find there is nothing I like on the menu, so we all have to go somewhere else instead!
There are very few foods that I won't eat, and I do enjoy variety. At the same time, I find myself eating the same things over and over, because of simplicity and habit.
I can certainly empathise with M's husband -- I've been known to eat the same thing for months, only to loose my taste for it completely for a time.
I think my husband will eat the same thing everyday for months just because he can not think of what he can tell me that he wants. Also he would have to drive to the store to get it. My mom just used to cook whatever she wanted, rotating menus, and we would just eat it. I tried that when I got married and my husband complained too much. If I made something that he did not like, he would order take-out. I got very angry. Then he started to tell me what he wanted me to cook for him everyday. A lot of times I will ask him what he wants and he says "I don't know". I always tell him that I don't know how to cook "I don't know".
It is just easier to shop and buy the same supplies every week. I have a huge pantry but some recipes need fresh ingredients and I have to shop for them. Sometimes I can walk to the store to buy a few items if the weather is not bad.
Spaghetti on toast - shapes or hoops, never normal spaghetti.
I always pack myself up a peanut butter and honey sandwich, an orange/apple/bananna, a drink, and some carrots/pea pods for lunch every day. i do not like most sandwiches, exept pitas. I prefer darker bread over all white breads, my favorite is squaw bread. Everyone in my family wonders why I don't like sandwiches in general. They are totally addicted to sandwiches and omlets w/
salsa on top 
These days I tend to eat anything so long as it has a high protein content (trying to put on weight - and succeeding!)
Anyone struggling with cooking, just get arecipe book. the new Jamie Oliver one is good as not only does it tell you what to make but how to do it, where things come from, ways to cook it, it's very informative.
I do like to cook and find making things quite easy, even doing a curry which involves a teaspoon of this spice and half a teaspoon of another and is a lot of messing about is worth it when you taste the results.
